Yesterday all the crew from GSI ran our staff at STRAPPER SURF through the 2010 range. Very cool to meet these guys and discuss each board with the designer.

Thomas Meyerhoffer ,Steve Walden , Bob McTavish
Greg Webber , (and some Kook from Jan Juc)

Any thoughts on the Meyerhoffer shape?-Ronnie

Hi Ronnie ,

Long time between paddles are you around this weekend....Sunday PRK.

Meyerhoffer ...... we have a demo board here for everyone to have a go.

People have all sorts of opinions on this board but those who have actually surfed it are stoked to try something different , and blown away with it's performance.

Those same dudes will be at Longboards Scarborough on Sun 15th. Chance to ride some of their boards and Bob is also signing his book.

That's cool about the Meyerhoffer. It is such a unique shape that I am sure there will be heaps of varied opinions about it once people start getting a surf on it. It looks like some biscuits we had in the usa called "nutter butter".

Funny, I had already slotted in for a surf at PRK or Damiens on Sunday (kitchen pass has been alloted). Low tide is at 4:40, so planning on being there about an hour before that. I've been in abay a fair bit the past couple of weeks, but it has been VERY flat when I have been there----so hanging for some surf

Hope to catch up with you on Sunday.

Ronnie
